Do you tip the salon owner if they do your cut?

Going to a new salon for the first time and am hooked with the owner of the salon. I've read mixed things about whether it's the done thing or not, plus at £70 for a cut and blow dry I'm not sure I feel another tenner on top is justifiable! However I will bow to social convention and go with the majority vote on here.

I never used to tip my previous hairdresser as she was mobile and quite a bit more expensive than your average mobile hairdresser

I always tips my hairdressers, purely selfishly!! No idea what the conventional wisdom is on this but when I go back and trust them with my hair again, I'm comforted to think that they know I'll tip if happy. (Not to say they wouldn't do a good job otherwise, but my hair's important to me so a bit of extra niceness can't hurt!)

I didn't tip. Feel a bit guilty because he was amazing and did a great job. Did but a £20 bottle of shampoo though and will happily recommend the salon. To be honest the whole idea of handing over a tenner to a very successful salon owner seemed excruciatingly awkward and clumsy though.
